Rainbow and the sun

-Roko Zaper

NOTES: This storybook was inspired by a documentary on the life of a Polish nobleman, Sebastián Berzeviczy, the alleged blood relative of Andre Benesz. My story follows Andre as he is told the tale of his relative by a mysterious old man. It is however just part of the story, as many years later Sebastián's daughter and her husband were hunted and murdered by Spanish spies. Only their son survived. With this as background, I wanted to examine our contemporary amnesia for the sacrifices and love that made our lives possible. "If the invisible wall between us will be crumbled by the killer wind of hurricane maybe we can see the other side of the rainbow." Chidi Okoya

 

 

But as I walked back to my car I coudn't get the treasure

in his story out of my mind. Maybe it was still at Niedzica

castle, just waiting to be found. I decided that I was

going to start searching for it and woudn't stop until I had

found it. Maybe that would stop my nightmares. As the

first rays of the sun broke through the trees the old man

on the bench took a deep breath. He simply said: "Ah,

here comes the sun..."
